I think this is the first time in my life that i've finished a book within 24 hours. I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN. Nella's story immediately grabbed me and Caroline wasn't nearly as annoying as other reviews I saw on here made her out to be. I loved the historical aspect of this story (18th century London need I say more?) and the way that Sarah Penner effortlessly connected 1791 London to Carolines present.
